. . .a weak 60.
I really do believe a solid 57 or 56 Democratic or so Senators working for the same goal is 115% stronger than constantly bending over for the likes of Lieberman, Nelson and Lincoln in an effort to keep them aboard.

1. Why? Apparently nothing can be passed without 60 on board. |

The Republicans could run roughshod over the world with 51 but anything meaningful for the people has to have 60. The game is rigged and not in the people's favor.
